Remaining likely candidates include Braverman, now seen as the woman who toppled Truss, and Sunak, who led the mass wave of ministerial resignations that forced Johnson's exit.

TriitNG:
Kwarteng's successor Jeremy Hunt, an opponent of Britain's exit from the EU like Truss, quickly ruled himself out of running for leader.

Hunt was runner up to Brexiteer Boris Johnson in the summer 2019 leadership contest to replace Theresa May, but was knocked out in the first round of balloting this July after Johnson resigned.



Kwarteng out, Jeremy in (with uncertain future as he could also be fired under a new PM and his policies overhauled by the new occupant of that office).
Instability and disorganization in govt leads to underproduction and ineffectiveness.
This is unprecedented.

The process that saw Truss appointed on September 5 involved several rounds of balloting by MPs to reduce the large field of candidates to her and former chancellor Rishi Sunak, followed by a month-long ballot of party members.

The announcement suggested that only Tory MPs would have a say in choosing the next PM.

She added that Brady had agreed to hold a leadership contest "to be completed within the next week", without elaborating, and that she would stay on ad PM until her successor was chosen.

Health Secretary Therese Coffey, who also holds the informal title of deputy PM, was seen arriving minutes later.

Truss said she had informed newly-succeeded Charles III that she was stepping down as leader of the ruling party.

Opposition Labour Party leader Sir Keir Starmer repeated his demand made at Prime Minister's questions on Wednesday and at the Trade Union Congress conference on Thursday morning for a general election "now".
Speculation of her resignation had been rife after Sir Graham Brady, chairman of the powerful back-bench 1922 Committee that governs Conservative Party leadership contests, was seen entering the back door at Number 10 for a meeting with the PM.

"Given the situation, I cannot deliver the mandate on which I was elected by the Conservative party," Truss said following weeks of turmoil that saw her chancellor of the exchequer Kwasi Kwarteng quit over the negative market response to his September 23 mini-budget.

That was less than 24 hours after Suella Braverman resigned as home secretary in a letter that made a thinly-veiled demand on Truss to follow suit.

British Prime Minister Liz Truss has announced her resignation as leader of the Tory Party and the country after just six weeks in the job.

The beleaguered PM made the announcement outside 10 Downing Street at 1.30pm on Thursday afternoon, making her the shortest-serving PM in British history.

TriitNG:
Just six weeks in to her premiership, Liz Truss was already under pressure to quit as her response to the energy crisis — provoked by sanctions on Russia — caused a run on the pound sterling and government bonds.

EKONGKING:
The Lettuce wins

Karlovych:
The real cause of her resignation must have been the presence of this creature in London.

How can you deliver your mandate when this ogre is roaming the streets of London, even the dullard was a witness for 8 years with it around the country he governed.

The useless plague is nothing but bad luck wherever he is, spits.

The head of Italian energy think tank Nomisma Energia said this week that Italy, along with the rest of Europe, is experiencing an energy shock of unprecedented magnitude, as electricity prices have almost doubled. According to him, Italians should be ready for rationing during the coldest winter months. He also urged households to make use of alternative methods of heating, such as burning firewood and pellets, though he added that prices for these are also up.
